2.1

How to select the right Vibracon® chock size?

To get an indication which size of Vibracon® should be used, the following parameters will give you an impression: • •

What is the size of the bolthole in the component bed plate? What is the minimum distance (pitch) between two adjacent holes?

The type indication of Vibracon® is related to the foundation bolts for which they can be used. For instance the Vibracon® SM30 is developed to be used in combination with a hexagonal bolt M30 but it is also possible to use one size of bolt diameter bigger, in this example a bolt M33.

2.2

How to get a Vibracon® chocking proposal free of charge?

As a part of our service, Machine Support offers you a free of charge calculation proposal for the mounting of your component. To prepare this calculation we need information concerning the component, the available chocking height and some information concerning the foundation. The fastest way to receive a chocking proposal for your application is to fill out one of the appropriate datasheets (APPENDIX 1). The datasheets can also be downloaded from our website www.machinesupport.com we ask you to send the completed datasheets by e-mail to:

[email protected] The used calculation software is approved by the Classification Societies involved for marine applications. On request Machine Support will make contact with the OEM to support you with getting an agreement on the chocking proposal. Normally you will receive, within one day, a calculation as mentioned in APPENDIX 2. A full proposal consists of four sheets: • • • •

Report of all information related to the selection of the chock, including operating forces on the chocks plus foundation hardware information; Illustration of the top view of the component that shows the location of the chocks, the position of the positioning and / or collision chocks and the fitted bolts (if required); Illustration of the cross section of the foundation bolt in which the clamping length and foundation bolt are specified; Illustration of the cross section of the fitted bolt, if required, in which the clamping length and fitted bolt are specified.

Machine Support, upon request, will submit our report to the involved Classification Society for approval. Costs for this service are on an as negotiated and per event basis.

How to order Vibracon® chocks?

In the Vibracon® brochure (see chapter 1) you will find an overview of the standard elements. If you have a specific component which has to be chocked and the standard elements will not fit, please don’t hesitate to send in your demands and we will find out if we can provide you a proper solution. Based on the unique article numbers the chocks can be ordered by fax, mail or e-mail. As soon as we have received your order we will send you an order conformation in reply. Vibracon® chocks are always on stock at Machine Support in the Netherlands. However, it is recommended to check the delivery time before ordering. Our local dealers of the elements also have some elements on stock. A list of all distributors is available on the website from Machine Support:

www.machinesupport.com 2.3.1 The Original Vibracon® SM chocks are machinery mounting chocks that are easily and accurately adjusted. The chocks accommodate up to a 4° angular difference between machine and the mounting base without expensive machining of the base or extra work of installing epoxy resin chocks. The self levelling capability combined with the height adjustment feature eliminates the possibility of a soft foot in the production line and for the life cycle of the machinery.

2.3.2 The Low Profile The Low Profile chocks offer an economic solution for repair projects or fixed design systems where expensive milled chocks, shims or epoxy resins were applied. The Vibracon® SM Low Profile configuration addresses those applications where the chock height between the foundation and component has been established by the previous design. Most of the other chocking methods are time consuming and do not support the life cycle needs of the machine owners and installation activities on a tight schedule. A variety of adjustment tools for confined installation spaces is available.

The article numbers of the different sizes of chocks are as follows:

2.3.3 The extended Vibracon® Original and Low Profile It can happen that the maximum element height is not sufficient to fill up the gap between the foundation top plate and the bed plate of the component. In that situation it is possible to introduce a so called additional bottom ring to extend the maximum height of the Vibracon® Original and Low Profile chocks. This ring will be mounted between the base plate of the chock and the top plate of the foundation. As an alternative for the additional bottom ring Machine Support can also provide Vibracon® extended bottom rings. As a rule of thumb, the height of the chocks should not exceed the diameter of the elements. For instance the maximum height of a Vibracon® SM30, with a diameter of 140 mm, should not exceed a chock height of 140 mm.
